league/commonmark

league/commonmark is a highly-extensible PHP Markdown parser created by Colin O'Dell which supports the full CommonMark spec and Github-Flavored Markdown. It is based on the CommonMark JS reference implementation by John MacFarlane [@jgm].

📦 Installation & Basic Usage

This project requires PHP 7.1 or higher with the mbstring extension. To install it via Composer simply run:

$ composer require league/commonmark

The CommonMarkConverter class provides a simple wrapper for converting CommonMark to HTML:

use League\CommonMark\CommonMarkConverter;

$converter = new CommonMarkConverter([
    'html_input' => 'strip',
    'allow_unsafe_links' => false,
]);

echo $converter->convertToHtml('# Hello World!');

// <h1>Hello World!</h1>

Or if you want Github-Flavored Markdown, use the GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter class instead:

use League\CommonMark\GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter;

$converter = new GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter([
    'html_input' => 'strip',
    'allow_unsafe_links' => false,
]);

echo $converter->convertToHtml('# Hello World!');

// <h1>Hello World!</h1>

Please note that only UTF-8 and ASCII encodings are supported. If your Markdown uses a different encoding please convert it to UTF-8 before running it through this library.

🔒 If you will be parsing untrusted input from users, please consider setting the html_input and allow_unsafe_links options per the example above. See https://commonmark.thephpleague.com/security/ for more details. If you also do choose to allow raw HTML input from untrusted users, considering using a library (like HTML Purifier) to provide additional HTML filtering.

🏷️ Versioning

SemVer is followed closely. Minor and patch releases should not introduce breaking changes to the codebase; however, they might change the resulting AST or HTML output of parsed Markdown (due to bug fixes, spec changes, etc.) As a result, you might get slightly different HTML, but any custom code built onto this library should still function correctly.

Any classes or methods marked @internal are not intended for use outside of this library and are subject to breaking changes at any time, so please avoid using them.

🛠️ Maintenance & Support

When a new minor version (e.g. 1.4 -> 1.5) is released, the previous one (1.4) will continue to receive security and critical bug fixes for at least 3 months.

When a new major version is released (e.g. 1.5 -> 2.0), the previous one (1.5) will receive critical bug fixes for at least 3 months and security updates for 6 months after that new release comes out.

(This policy may change in the future and exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis.)

Professional support, including notification of new releases and security updates, is available through a Tidelift Subscription.

👷‍♀️ Contributing

To report a security vulnerability, please use the Tidelift security contact. Tidelift will coordinate the fix and disclosure with us.

If you encounter a bug in the spec, please report it to the CommonMark project. Any resulting fix will eventually be implemented in this project as well.

Contributions to this library are welcome, especially ones that:

• Improve usability or flexibility without compromising our ability to adhere to the CommonMark spec
• Mirror fixes made to the reference implementation
• Optimize performance
• Fix issues with adhering to the CommonMark spec

Major refactoring to core parsing logic should be avoided if possible so that we can easily follow updates made to the reference implementation. That being said, we will absolutely consider changes which don't deviate too far from the reference spec or which are favored by other popular CommonMark implementations.

Please see CONTRIBUTING for additional details.

🧪 Testing

$ composer test

This will also test league/commonmark against the latest supported spec.

🚀 Performance Benchmarks
